The apprehensions attached with a new tennis concept have disappeared as the top international players have embraced IPTL, feels Mahesh Bhupathi, whose league will feature a marquee match between Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer in the capital this season.

Spanish tennis star Rafael Nadal on Sunday said ahead of the Bet-At-Home Open here that he was feeling well and had to accept the fact that he had lost more matches in the past six months than in the previous 11 years.

In a sense, Wimbledon 2015 went as per script. The two best players on the planet, Serena Williams and Novak Djokovic ran out winners in their respective categories. The two deserving winners were in total command throughout the two grueling weeks of tennis.

Armed with what Goran Ivanisevic calls a "Balkan mentality" and "positive arrogance", Novak Djokovic replaced the heartbreak of losing the French Open with the joy of hoisting the Wimbledon trophy in the space of just five weeks.

When Roger Federer saw Novak Djokovic sharing a victory embrace with wife Jelena in the corridor leading to the men`s locker room at Wimbledon, the Swiss must have wondered if he will ever himself get a chance to experience such a moment again.
